Because he said nothing.

legendte:

Let me further assist you, you can't have a contrary opinion with your principal as an aide. Does this help your situation?

ibabz:
This was actually my point when I read the New - What is the strategic importance of Daura to Nigeria's economy? What does Daura bring to the table in terms of contribution to Nigeria's GDP that it should require this huge investment?

#babzview

Joejonah:



Is Daura the most effective and efficient Agricultural producing city? On what criteria were they choosen?

Mrjo:
Thats the root tribalism/sentiment, when u are a leader, u put ur tribe first wheather good or bad

Tolourxkelv:
Lagos and Aba combined are more resourceful and productive than the whole of North yet no rail line to link these two cities. It is Daura that is more important to our Hausa/Fulani leaders. God is watching Biafra must come! Oduduwa Nation Must come! Nigeria is a failed marriage

Histrings08:
Oga Reno, I like u #nohomo.. Buh if no development in terms of infrastructure get to his hometown while he's president, what will he tell his people when he eventually returns home? I'm in total support of this, this man is learning from d mistakes of his predecessors, I just hope he cover all necessary ground sha

seguno2:


Is he president of Daura or of our entire country?
Were you also in total support of Buhari's 97% versus 5% silly talk?
The only university in Katsina, the state of Buhari and Yar'Adua, was built by Jonathan.
Jonathan also built almajiri schools in the north, not so?
This greedy selfishness and stupidity is wrecking our country.

TLisieux:
But GEJ located a federal university in his hometown

obailala:
Does the coastal rail line not connecr Lagos to Aba?.... What is even wrong with people?.... Is it that people just jump online to criticise ignorantly just for the sake of being heard?

rusher14:
OK.

From the link below one can see the proposal preceeds Buhari's government.

My only question for Reno is, can he show us an article he wrote while he was still in power where he asked for restructuring?

Don't mind half of them are just being mischievous. The other half are paid trolls, being paid with our stolen Billions. Corruption fights back. They have been making noise online, forgetting that Nigerians are no fools. When the time comes, we shall remind them again.

Histrings08:
yes, we have president Goodluck Jonathan did all that, I know.. Buh he should av developed his state too.. At least they could av also revels in the fact that tz their son that helped then achieve that feat.. BTW, I'll never be in support of that 97 vs 5% statement

Lagos and Aba combined are more resourceful and productive than the whole of North yet no rail line to link these two cities. It is Daura that is more important to our Hausa/Fulani leaders. God is watching Biafra must come! Oduduwa Nation Must come! Nigeria is a failed marriage

adecz:
Who told this jester that
Port Harcourt is not linked to rail??

babaolofin:


You have to be objective in your reasoning. Action & reaction are equal & opposite in science. There must be an action demanding a reaction. There is no any economic justification for that rail line other than for the people of Daura to feel his impact while in government especially this second chance. He must have something to present to them. If this is done when the economic was buoyant, some of us would not have complained.

This is the system used in the military era.

Obj in his time never did this kind of thing though people reminded him how he failed to deliver the road he promised as military head of states. The University in Otuoke is the only Federal University in Bayelsa & Bayelsa is entitled to one. At the inception of Yaradua administration, he approved the establishment of University of Petroleum Technology in Kaduna while PTI Effurun, Warri was rusting away. It created a lot of tension between the Niger Delta elites, militants & Yaradua as the Niger Delta people demanded for PTI to be converted to University of Petroleum, at last, they won.

It seems the Northern system of governance is still the same military or civilian. Despite the supports, we are watching.

obailala:

GEJ also diverted the coastal railway map off-route from Yenagoa to Otuoke. Can Reno please tell us what the economic importance of Otuoke is to deserve such a major branch-off of a multi billion dollar railway and also a federal university?

babaolofin:


Bayelsa is a creek state. Only one local government is on the mainland, the remaining are surrounded by water (sea). There is Niger Delta University in Wilberforce Island. The Federal University in Bayelsa has justification being the only Federal University. The location is for Bayelsa people's discussion & not a national issue. What justification for rail line to Daura under this economic downturn.

captleonerd:
Reno is a slowpoke like his boss Jonathan. So because he's the president he should leave his hometown undeveloped for the fear of being tagged nepotistic?

This is an ambiguity of gross misinformation, and his verbose expletives reeks of odious sentimental arrogance,

Your disconnection from truism is a pointer to your trepid political bellicisity towards the incumbent,
1.the daura is gonna have a detour, station for transit, hence it has been part of the original masterplan for the Western line known as lakaji that is lagos-kano-jibiya,
Daura is within jibiya local government area,

2.for a paradigm of diversification to become a practicable reality, you need to an advancement of the agricultural supply chain,

3.the backward integration plan, involves value Chain addition, which includes faster freight of agro-consumables without delay to points of termination, demand points, supply points, production points, retail points, etc

4.the reagriculturalization plan, involves mitigation of excess westages from inadequacies in preservation of agro-consumables, by this means cooling and refrigerator coaches will be introduced to curtail the anomaly,

5.the roads are becoming increasingly expensive to maintain, hence transportation logistics is a pointer to diversification of our mono economy, hence by taking agro-consumables from roads to fastidiously expedite their movement on rails, our roads becomes more durable and last longer, with reduction in road accidents,

6.the daura within jibiya is a path towards the neighboring country of Niger within the West African subregion, hence their is transnational transregional economic integration, hence the facilitation through the logistics of transportation, by this means movement of goods boosting regional trade, Some of the beef you eat comes From niger Republic,

Part of NW's Objectives to be achieved before agreeing to restructure-Spiritual and Presidencial Corruption. Why not Akure to Ado Ekiti or Asaba to Nnewi? The Caliphate is clever.‪

seguno2:


The political landscape that we have created and allowed to flourish?
Why is the political landscape of the USA, Canada, UK, France etc different?
Can that be why we are praying and fasting for visa breakthroughs to be voluntary underemployed slaves in those countries where we are treated like monkeys?
Should we continue to look on as our country goes from worse to worse?

obailala:
Are you aware GEJ also diverted the coastal railway map off-route from Yenagoa to Otuoke his home town?. Can Reno please tell us what the economic importance of Otuoke is to deserve such a major branch-off of a multi billion dollar railway line and also a federal university in Otuoke?

Now I will answer the question, there is absolutely nothing economically wrong with extending the railway to Katsina state (Daura) or even Otuoke. There is also nothing economically wrong with extending the coastal rail to touch Yenagoa. The fact of the matter is that Nigeria is in dire need of a boost to economic activities and the importance/benefits of establishing a robust railway system which connects as many towns and cities and states as possible can never be overemphasised.
